Lewis Hamilton Nurses His Tires (as usual) and Wins
Mercedes-AMG's Lewis Hamilton starts in Row 2 behind the Ferraris and wins in a very exciting race with the normal tire compound choices, did we pit him too soon, will it be a one pit stop or a two pit stop Formula 1 drama as normal. When Lewis pitted he was put on the Pirelli Hard Compound (white) tires. Ironically, Lewis with his audio communication with the pits did not think that the Hard Compound tires were performing properly and questioned the logic of putting him out on the Hard tires. --more--

Red Bull Will Start In Front of the Ferraris.
Max Verstappen for Red Bull will start on Pole for the FORMULA 1 MEXICAN GRAND PRIX 2019. The Ferraris are still benefiting from the changes the team made to their cars with Charles Leclerc and Sebastian Vettel starting for Ferrari in Positions 2 and 3. Lewis Hamilton for Mercedes-AMG will start in Position 4 with his teammate Valtteri Bottas starting in Position 6. Alexander Albon will have the other Red Bull in Position 5. Based on the Mercedes-AMG team's finish in Japan two weeks ago in addition to Mercedes-AMG winning their 6th straight Constructors' Championship, the team also locked up their 6th straight Drivers' Championship, with it yet to be determined whether it will be Hamilton for his 2nd in a row or will it be Bottas for his 1st. Mercedes-AMG has completely dominated the Turbo-Hybrid era.
